设计：覆盖会话#new action

Question

I want to be able to send already-signed-in-users somewhere else when they go to the sign in page . Right now they are sent to the root path.

I tried making my own new action in sessions controller but it doesn't seem to work. The text I try to print out on the log to test out doesn't even come out, so I think the user is redirected somewhere up the chain.

How do you do this?

Answer 1

I think what you are looking for is after_sign_in_path_for . If you define that method in your application_controller.rb file you can return whatever path you want the user to be redirected to.

def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
  if current_user.current_sign_in_at > 1.minute.ago
    your_own_path
  else
    super
  end
end
